  • TR-2933 Street Scale Modeling of Storm Surge Inundation Along The
    TR-2933 Street Scale Modeling of Storm Surge Inundation along the New Jersey Hudson River Waterfront Alan Blumberg, Thomas Herrington, Larry Yin, and Nickitas Georgas Davidson Laboratory Technical Report TR-2933 Stevens Institute of Technology Hoboken, NJ October 2014 1 TR-2933 Executive Summary A new, high-resolution, hydrodynamic model that encompasses the urban coastal waters and coastal flood plain of New Jersey along the Hudson River waterfront opposite New York City has been developed and validated. 3.1m model grid resolution combined with high-resolution LiDAR elevation datasets permit a street by street focus to inundation modeling. The waterfront inundation model (NJWIM) is a sECOM model application, nested into a larger New York Bight sECOM model (NYHOPS), itself nested to an even larger Northwest Atlantic sECOM model (SNAP). Robust wetting and drying of land in the model physics provides for the dynamic prediction of flood elevations and velocities across land features during inundation events. NJWIM was forced by water levels from the NYHOPS hindcast of Hurricane Sandy. The hindcast utilized Sandy over ocean wind field and atmospheric pressure data, offshore wave and tidal boundary forcing, atmospheric heat fluxes, and interior streamflow data. Validation against 56 water marks and 16 edgemarks provided via the USGS and through an extensive crowd sourcing effort consisting of photographs, videos and personal stories shows that the model is capable of computing overland water elevations quite accurately. The correlation coefficient (R2) between the water mark observations and the model results is 0.92. The standard deviation of the residual error is 0.07 m. The simulated water levels at 78% of the data measurement locations have less than 20% error.

  • 2020 Hudson River Access Plan Poughkeepsie to Rensselaer
    2020 HUDSON RIVER ACCESS PLAN POUGHKEEPSIE TO RENSSELAER FINAL REPORT GEORGE STAFFORD MARCH 2020 Photo courtesy of Jeanne Casatelli ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Hundreds of individuals, elected officials, agencies and organizations have contributed to the development of this document through their words and actions. They include: • People passionate about improved access to the Hudson River who attended public meetings, provided more than 1,000 comments and 5,000 votes on places where they use or wish to use the river, and have been directly involved in keeping access points open by taking part in cleanups along the shorelines and other activities. • Elected federal, state and local officials from Poughkeepsie to Rensselaer who provided letters and resolutions contained in this report, participated in phone interviews, facilitated public meeting sites, and elevated the importance of saving and increasing access points through their support of local plans and reports issued in recent years. • Individuals and organizations who collaborated on the Hudson River Access Forum that issued “Between the Railroad and the River—Public Access Issues and Opportunities along the Tidal Hudson.” This 1989 publication remains extremely relevant. • Finally, we wish to thank Matthew Atkinson, who authored “On the Wrong Side of the Railroad Tracks: Public Access to the Hudson River” (1996) for the Pace Environmental Law Review. This work provides a phenomenal review of the public trust doctrine and the legal principles governing the railroads’ obligation to provide river access. Mr. Atkinson’s advice during the development of this document proved invaluable. CONTACT / PRIMARY AUTHORS CONTACT Jeffrey Anzevino, AICP Director of Land Use Advocacy Scenic Hudson, Inc.

  • 1 the Future of Pier 76 Opportunities and Strategies Urban Planning
    The Future of Pier 76 Opportunities and strategies Urban Planning Studio, Spring 2019 Wednesdays, 3:00 to 7:00 pm 300 Avery Location: Manhattan, New York City Professors: Anthony Borelli ([email protected]) Maxine Griffith ([email protected]) TA: Michael Montilla ([email protected]) Key Dates: First Class Wednesday, January 23 Mid-Term Review Wednesday, March 6 (12 – 6pm) Spring Break Monday, March 18 – Friday, March 22 Final Review Wednesday, May 8 (10am – 6pm) End of Year Show Opening on Saturday, May 18 Overview For most of human history the waterfront represented sustenance and commerce. Waters were fished, goods were shipped and trade was generated up and down the world’s waterways. Even the merchants of the Silk Road traveled via the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean. In the 19th century water also became a source of power; great dams and waterworks fueled industry. Still later, urban residents were cut off from their waterfronts as massive highways were built circumventing the City. However, as container shipping, commercial air transport and a moribund industrial sector freed up these spaces, the relationship between the worlds’ people and its waterfront changed. In this studio we will address the planning challenges of one specific place where land and water meet. We will look at Pier 76 through the prism of history, government policy, community needs and fiscal realities. We will talk to stakeholders, interview officials and research best practices and relevant emerging technologies. We will arrive at a set of viable recommendations that serve both the community and the city as a whole and that add to the body of knowledge around these important issues.

  • Hudson County, NJ Getaway Guide
    GETAWAY GUIDE Hudson County, New JerseyBY STEPHANIE VERMILLION Just eight kilometres from crowded Times Square, travellers can find respite from tourist attractions in an unexpected locale: Hudson County. This New Jersey county, set west of Manhattan along the Hudson River, is an emerging destination attracting travellers and food lovers alike. We can hardly blame them. With significantly fewer Skinner's Loft in Jersey City tourists than neighbouring Manhattan and shortcuts to major landmarks we’re betting it won’t stay that way for long. A diverse culinary scene, good value hotels and splendid New York City views attract new visitors each year. Here’s how to visit Hudson County while it’s still hidden in plain sight: EAT & DRINK Hudson County is one of the most culturally diverse places SEE & DO in the United States, and nowhere is this more apparent than its food scene. Take Son Cubano, a trendy restaurant with vintage vibes from glamourous 1950s Cuba. This waterfront Most travellers visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Hyatt Regency Jersey City on the Hudson institution pairs cultural classics like churrasco and ropa vieja Island National Museum of Immigration from Lower with late-night fun; live music and festive dancing fill the Manhattan, but lines are long and the boats are packed. West New York hot spot every weekend. Instead, head to Jersey City’s Liberty State Park. The Despite its size, dining options abound in Hoboken. With park offers the area’s quickest access to the Statue and longstanding establishments like the classic Amanda’s Res- Ellis Island - tickets are available from Statue Cruises at taurant and the upscale Blue Eyes Restaurant (named the Central Railroad Terminal Building - but that hardly STAY & SLEEP after former resident Frank Sinatra), visitors never have to scratches the surface of this 485-hectacre green space.

  • Hudson–Bergen Light Rail System and Economic Development on the Waterfront
    LIGHT RAIL TRANSIT AND TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT Hudson–Bergen Light Rail System and Economic Development on the Waterfront NEAL FITZSIMMONS Booz Allen Hamilton WHITNEY BIRCH Booz Allen Hamilton he introduction of the Hudson–Bergen Light Rail (HBLR) line on the Hudson River waterfront T in April 2000 was the result of a long planning and construction process that largely started in the mid-1980s. The system has both benefited from and helped shape an even longer cycle of economic recovery, redevelopment, and expansion in Jersey City, New Jersey, and on the waterfront. Development activity in the area, key HBLR project milestones, and some lessons learned along the way are described. While it would be unreasonable to directly attribute the many economic successes on the waterfront to the development of the light rail line, clearly there is a symbiotic relationship between the two that has existed over the past 15 years as the system has been planned, constructed, and implemented. Major development projects were constructed on the waterfront in the late 1980s and through the 1990s because of factors such as the proximity to New York City and the access provided by Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH), the aggressive upfront planning process, and the available tax incentives or other economic benefits that could be realized. Now, as light rail has been implemented, the pace of development appears to have quickened, and the expansion is beginning to move away from the core waterfront areas developed first. Developers have begun to shift away from the PATH stations hubs. They are investing in properties along the light rail alignment, they are showing more attention to the residential market, and they are “selling” the amenities and connectivity that the light rail line provides.
